| The U-Turn Helium is so stable that you can fly it like
a two line kite, there’s rarely any need to apply brake
at the edge of the window and the brakes are only necessary
for fast turning and landing
Less experienced flyers can improve stability by increasing
the angle of attack with the trim system and trimming the
brakes quite tight so that a crease can be seen on the undersurface
near the trailing edge, but don't overdo it or the kite can
stall out or spin too easily
You can depower the kite when the wind is too strong for
your experience by reducing the angle of attack with the trimmers
When the wind is very light you can decrease the angle of
attack with the trim system to to make the kite fly faster
For scudding, jumping, boarding or buggying on soft ground
you should trim the kite for maximum 'grunt' by increasing
the angle of attack. For speed on a hard surface, use the
trimmers to reduce the angle of attack and get the kite flying
fast.
The set-up of a kite is a very much down to personal preference
and you should experiment to find the settings and techniques
that suit you. Please contact us
if you need more help and advice, or have any tips of your
own to share
